Urgently need help! What is this font?

[honestlybrandy]

There is a fairly important project I'm working on and I'd like to use this font for it. I've spent several hours combing through free font sites trying to discover it. Can someone help me out and give me the name of this font?

Because you asked nicely...Just teasing...

You are my hero! Thank you so much!

BTW, the people who make this font sell a commercial license for $10.

Ah, you are most welcome.

And if your project is important, then you probably can afford to pay the $10 for the font.

Just for info! If anyone wants to find a font and they have an image for it they can normally get a recommendation of the fonts name from here by up-loading the image: http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/

"What the font" went downhill a few years ago and most often only displays fonts they sell.

"What Font Is" is another site and generally does a better job with both commercial and free fonts. Even so, there are so many fonts available, likely you'll run into those that the sites cannot match.

One should also clean up an image, remove excess baggage, make it black and white if possible. Sometimes, one can manually trace a few characters, export those as a jpg and get a more accurate result if the sample image is of low quality.

The bottom image in this thread was better to use than most. You can figure out how I cleaned up the image. Submit it to both whatthefont and whatfontis and review the results.

I might add that this sort of typeface is a very common one at Stu's Font Diner, which specializes in Retro and faux-Retro faces, several of them free.

None of these represent the exact face you posted, but he does indeed offer fonts similar to the one you seek.
